Banyan Tree AlUla is the perfect destination to escape the hustle and bustle of life and enjoy the beauty of nature and luxury.

The magnificent Yardang landforms here are like a diverse array of megaliths in the desert, and the sunken sofas blend seamlessly with the sands. Leaning against the Elephant Rock to watch the sunset is truly relaxing. Elephant Rock is 52 meters tall and was formed by natural erosion. It is also one of the iconic landscapes of AlUla.

Quite the experience in the far North Western corner of Saudi Arabia near the city of Al Ula is the old Nabataean city of Hegra, the twin city of Petra in Jordan. The scenery is stunning and visitors are rare. With the new electronic visa system in place in Saudi Arabia these trips are becoming easier either as a destination alone or as a stopover on Saudia Airlines.#tripblazers #saudiarabia #petra #hegra #saudia

In addition to modern urban scenery like Hong Kong, I also love exploring heritage sites in different parts of the world, and this is one of them. If I had the chance to travel to Saudi Arabia, I would definitely go again! (Except for extremely hot summer temperatures) . Although Madain Saleh is not open to the public at present, it will be developed into a tourist attraction and open to tourists in the future. Once again, I would like to thank the local government for inviting me and giving me the opportunity to take photos so that I can share these photos with everyone. . #sa #arabia #saudiarabia #midasia #alula #unesco #heritage

#summervacay I recently experienced the Banyan Tree AlUla, Saudi Arabia's only Banyan Tree property. I drove about 7+ hours from Jeddah to reach it, nestled in the Ashar Valley of AlUla. AlUla has done a great job with its international marketing, and even during the off-peak season, there were quite a few Chinese guests at the hotel – a testament to its success! Overall, my stay was quite good and felt very much like a resort experience. The scenery is absolutely stunning, and the service was decent, definitely not disappointing. The hotel has implemented a good system for managing expectations when calling for a buggy; they'll tell you the estimated wait time, though in my week-long stay, I never had to wait long at all. However, once you venture outside the Banyan Tree property, things can get a bit chaotic in Saudi Arabia. It feels like a place where rules are non-existent or made up on the fly, very informal. So, honestly, staying within the hotel grounds was the most comfortable and relaxing option. A huge bonus is that the magnificent Maraya Concert Hall is located within the Banyan Tree's area, making it incredibly convenient to visit and take photos anytime. #BanyanTreeAlUla #AlUla #SaudiArabia #LuxuryTravel #DesertOasis #HotelReview #Maraya #TravelSaudiArabia

One of the most underrated gems in the Middle East – AlUla took my breath away! From the majestic Elephant Rock to the mysterious Jabal AlBanat, this ancient city blends history, nature, and modern comfort beautifully. ✨ What I loved: ✅ Muslim-friendly with prayer spaces ✅ Quiet, clean and family-friendly ✅ Unique cafés, traditional arts, and peaceful vibes 🌤️ Pro Tip: Visit during winter months (Nov–Feb) for the best weather! This place is perfect for Muslim travelers looking for more than just a spiritual journey – it’s a full-on cultural and visual adventure! #AlUla #HiddenGem #MuslimTravel #SaudiArabia #FamilyTrip #ElephantRock #HalalTravel #CulturalAdventure

A thousand years ago, AlUla in Saudi Arabia connected the ancient "Incense Route" trade line between Asia and Europe, thriving as a vital hub along the Belt and Road. Today, AlUla blends modern civilization with ancient relics, offering both otherworldly landscapes and dreamy luxury experiences. Hidden here is the Banyan Tree Hotel & Resort. Arriving at AlUla at 10 PM, I was greeted by hotel staff holding a welcome sign at the airport. A cup of Arabic coffee handed to me in the car instantly eased my travel fatigue. The resort is a 40-minute drive from AlUla Airport, and I couldn’t take my eyes off the window—surrounded by bizarre rock formations and dotted with lights from the ancient city. Entering the hotel area, I looked up to a sky full of stars, feeling as if I’d landed on an alien planet. I stayed in a villa with a private pool, falling asleep to the soothing aroma of Banyan Tree’s signature fragrance. The next morning, I was treated to a photogenic floating breakfast—just the appetizer of this wild luxury experience. Taking the hotel shuttle for a tour, I finally understood why this is called the world’s coolest Banyan Tree. Forty-seven tented villas are scattered along a narrow valley, flanked by towering, weathered rock walls that bear witness to the passage of time. The hotel’s dominance over an entire canyon is awe-inspiring, with 47 sand-colored canvas tents nestled like pearls in the folds of the cliffs, as if naturally grown desert dwellings. The hotel offers a wealth of experiences: complimentary yoga, HIIT, and sound bowl sessions, as well as unique activities like horseback riding, camel trekking, and Jeep safaris. Each guest is provided with an electric scooter for easy access to Maraya Concert Hall and the canyon pool. By day, you can explore the Nabatean tombs; by evening, soak in the cliffside pool as the red rocks turn golden; and at night, lie under the stars listening to ancient Bedouin tales… In that moment, you’ll feel "life is worth it." The dining options are equally impressive: lunch at **Saffron Restaurant** serves authentic Thai cuisine, and with the growing number of Chinese guests, the restaurant now offers Chinese dishes. Another venue, **Harrat**, specializes in Italian and Middle Eastern cuisine, with ingredients sourced directly from the hotel’s sustainable farm. As another name is quietly checked off my "bucket-list hotels," what remains are memories that stay vivid, passionate, and burning bright—just like AlUla in May.

Banyan Tree Eorla is adjacent to this UNESCO heritage site with 47 villas "Desert Capsules". Each window is a giant screen of the natural sky with an epic texture of billions of years. ————The surrounding area of ​​the hotel is full of primitive and natural atmosphere, and it is also known as the "world-famous open-air museum". ▫️ Pool villas are built on cliffs: the constant temperature swimming pool reflects the red cliffs. In the evening, you can lie in the pool and watch the desert sunset🏜️. ▫️ Starry bonfire experience: When night falls, the outdoor rest area will light a bonfire🔥, and you can look up at the vast Milky Way🌌. Once you move in, you don't want to check out🔥

Ladies! Last week, I bravely took my 7-year-old "money-gobbling monster" to Banyan Tree AlUla, the much-hyped resort online. The starry pool was indeed breathtakingly beautiful! BUT! These pitfalls nearly made me evaporate on the spot in the desert (real pitfalls + nanny-level tips included). 🌈【Why You MUST Bring Your Kids?】 ✅Fewer crowds – it felt like we had the entire resort to ourselves! ✅Magical experiences: Cave pools + stargazing in the desert + date palm forest adventures all in one! ✅Legendary service: 24-hour butler delivering chilled date juice to your room. 🗺️【Real Stay Experience】 📍Room choice: Avoid the second floor for pool-view rooms! Our private pool faced the maintenance area (watching workers fix pipes daily was... an experience 😭). ⚠️Key reminder: When booking, request "away from construction zones"! Desert winds amplify all noise. 💣【Three Major Meltdown Moments】 ⚠️Pitfall 1: The pool maintenance nightmare! Told the pool would be under maintenance for two weeks upon arrival, but it suddenly opened the next day! My kid had to swim in long johns, getting photographed by amused foreign aunties... mortifying. ⚠️Pitfall 2: The "Habitats" project turned into a "standing punishment"! Promised as kid-friendly, but it was a 45-minute desert plant lecture! My restless child lasted three minutes before digging for lizards 😵. ⚠️Pitfall 3: The "starry dinner" became a "mosquito feast"! A $680 desert dinner left my kid with 23 mosquito bites! The repellent the staff brought was two years expired... 💡【Life-Saving Tips to Avoid Pitfalls】 1️⃣Room selection wisdom: ▫️Book rooms with private plunge pools! Soaking under the Milky Way is unreal. ▫️Avoid all second-floor rooms! Ground-floor rooms open directly to the date palm forest. 2️⃣Hidden kid activities: ▫️Borrow free Arabic headscarves from the front desk! Dressing up as a little sheikh makes for adorable photos. ▫️Hit the main pool before 10 AM! The heated water is perfect for kids. 3️⃣Food survival tips: ▫️Must-try the Thai restaurant’s green curry! My kid drank three bowls of the soup. ▫️Ask the kitchen for the hidden kids' meal! It’s free and not on the menu (fries crispier than McDonald’s!). 📸【Epic Family Photo Spots】 🌟Cave pool: Shoot at 4 PM for backlighting! Kids floating on pool rings look like glowing angels. 🌟Starry terrace: Use long exposure to capture kids pointing at stars! The desert sky is unreal. 🌟Date palm maze: Candid shots of kids running through the trees! Bonus points if a robed butler photobombs. 🌟Sunset dunes: Borrow free sandboards from the resort! Action shots of kids sliding are pure joy. 🍴【Secret Food Gems】 ▫️Breakfast Saudi pancakes (drizzled with honey and nuts – heavenly!). ▫️Lobby bar’s date milkshake (so good you’ll want three!). 💌Real talk: Despite the mosquito bites (almost called the police), hearing my kid count stars in the pool saying, "The sky and ground are both pools!" and watching them dance to local drums at the desert dinner made every hassle worth it 😭. Best for kids 5+. Pack 10 bottles of repellent + kids' goggles! Don’t forget to ask for the meteorite souvenir pin at checkout (a butler’s secret gift!). Bookmark this to dodge 800 desert pitfalls!

Do you parents understand? I bravely ventured into the secret land of the Saudi desert with my 7-year-old son, but was kidnapped by a "sand demon" as a mount😭 This rotten starry sky swimming pool almost made me write an abdication edict in the dunes! ! ! 🐪 Traffic Horrors Crazy the moment he rushed into El Ora! The son treats the camel as a twister and insists on throwing mineral water bottles in exchange for the "desert blind box"💦 But the second he saw the Banyan Tree - the rock hotel was like an alien battleship inserted into the sea of ​​​​rose-colored sand, the human cub suddenly returned to his ancestors: "Mom, is this Aladdin's carpet charging station?!" 🏜️ Immortal level childcare scene ▪️ Starry pool becomes a galaxy bouncy bed! Raising the float as a surfboard, the water splashed out a three-meter-high desert rainbow ▪️Habitats project triggers archaeological mania! Fifty "dinosaur eggs" (weathered stones) were dug out with bare hands, and the hotel bathrobe bag turned into an hourglass ▪️Thai restaurant hidden rice assassin! Curry sauce as a paint on the tablecloth to paint an abstract pie desert, accompanying laughter to apple muscle cramps ▪️ Open air sofa into a stargazing ring! I insist that the meteor is the fairy wifi signal, still waiting for "signal full" at 3am in the middle of the night. ⚠️ Blood and tears avoid pit warning 1️⃣ Desert temperature difference is the master of face change! Sunscreen during the day is mushy like a terracotta warrior, and at night wrapped in a blanket vibrates like a fascia gun frequency 2️⃣ Rock villa has a hidden echo wall! The bath song sparked a big chorus in the whole building, and the couple next door changed rooms overnight 3️⃣Pool Maintenance Announcement is Schrödinger's cat! Just arrived and said it would take a couple of weeks, the next day they released the water saying it was "magic taking effect". 🌌Indigenous Survival Tips (replace with sunscreen) 1️⃣ Grab a villa with a private sand pit! A bucket of sand can seal a bear child for two hours 2️⃣ Steal Coconut Date Energy Bar! While hiking it was said that "desert gold coins" could be exchanged for ice cream 3️⃣ When the waiter is "Lamp God Attendant"! For a cold drink, rub the brass kettle three times 4️⃣ Learn three Arabic sentences for dessert! "Mumtaz (good)" allows the chef to make more chocolate waterfalls 🌠Unpopular Killer Egg (Shh!) 👉🏻 Meteor on the west side of the pool at 23:15! Sleeping in a floating bed allows you to see the galaxy falling into the water 👉🏻 Villa 316 terrace hides fluorescent stones! UV lamps illuminate camel rock paintings from 3,000 years ago 👉🏻 The sand dunes ten minutes before sunrise are the most magical! You can capture 24K pure gold blush with mobile phone photography Now every day, my son urges me to ask "when I will be a desert chief again", this bad hotel has raised the threshold of parent-child to mythical level! Here comes the point - 🏜️The correct way to open Banyan Tree: ✅ Help your son dress up as an Arabian princess with a bath towel! If you wear your turban crookedly, you can ask the housekeeper to send you coconut dates ✅ Teach your son to change the name of the hotel calf! Claiming to be a "rancher" can get a shovel officer experience voucher ✅ When the starry sky is "the fairy's LED light"! Every time you recognize a constellation bonus gummy candy ✅ Play time capsule in the dunes! Buried a hair tie that digging out next year can replace Haagen-Dazs I have 800 emoticons stored in my phone's photo album, but when I see my son holding up a fluorescent stone and saying "This is the Emir's Night Pearl" - this pit, I jump! I heard that cave exploration will be open in winter ⛏️ My mother has already hoarded ten lotions. Is there a child who wants to be a sand dune elf? 🌵 Summary of violent arguments (written on veil with eyeliner) Don't wear white shoes! Don't wear buns! Don't explain "why camels roll their eyes"! This place specializes in treating princess diseases, but after treatment, you still want to be abused again - after all, who can refuse the crit when the son points to the galaxy and says "these are the gods sprinkling popping candy"✨ 🍧 Listen to the Party Bible (replace with three dates) ▫️ Choose rock shade for afternoon tea! Natural air conditioning can turn a child into a quiet and handsome man ▫️ Children's meals must be marked "no spicy"! Not a kid can drink an entire pool of lemonade ▫️ Steal the Bedouin guide to knit bracelets! It consumes more energy than Lego ▫️ Take away bath salts before checking out! Go home and take a bath and immediately return to the desert starry night Three last roars!! ️Catch your son! Lock the windows! Memorize the Big Dipper! This Banyan Tree specializes in monster parental anxiety, but seeing the child roll into a happy sesame ball in the moonlight - worth it! Come and claim your little sand demon!

Elephant Rock in Alula, Saudi Arabia is a very similar elephant-shaped mountain. If you look a little to the south of the sea, you will see a bowling-shaped mountain that looks very similar. You can drive on the sand to the foot of the bowling-shaped mountain. If you walk a little bit, you will be very close to the bowling-shaped canyon. If you come to Alula, you must not miss this spot. It is recommended to rent a car, which is the most convenient. Plus, there is no entrance fee. #alula

(I walked for 40 minutes) lol On the way there, a kind Macau person gave me a ride🫶 Thank you! Uber doesn't come often and local taxis are expensive, so if you have an international driver's license, it's probably better to rent a car! #overseastravel #SaudiArabia #touristspots #photogenictrip #AlUla #MiddleEast #girlstrip

Take a morning flight to AlUla and enter the entire Yardang landform of the canyon. The vastness of the scenery is shocking. It takes about an hour to drive from the airport to the Asher Valley area, where the Banyan Tree Hotel, Our Habitas, and Maraya Concert Hall are located. Before arriving at the two hotels, a mirrored building suddenly appeared. It turns out that the Maraya Concert Hall is on the way to the hotel. Today, I chose to check in to the Banyan Tree first. The Banyan Tree Hotel covers a very large area, and the entire building is submerged in the canyon. The magnificent scenery and the details of the hotel make people enjoy it.
